No Brakes

D Em7 G D

[Verse 1]
D                             Em7
April blooming, white jasmine spills
 over on
       Bm7
To the worn out floral pattern couch
      G                            
Where I have been waiting. Hey, 
    D                              
kid, I think our vessel is sinking 
       Em7
under the weight
       Bm7
Of our dark as black coffee spiked
     G                             
With cheap whiskey thinking. I 
  D
stand up at the front of your bed
Em7                           Bm7
 Pull down the sleeves on my beat
                           G
 up black and white wool sweater.
                  D                
I'm squeezing the little red marks 
      Em7
on my wrist where
G               D
I made some mistakes

[Verse 2]
D                Em7
 Minds blank and limbs bruised
Bm7                            G
Stomachs full of black coffee and 
plantains
D                   Em7
 In the thick smoky fog of your 
bedsheets
Bm7                G
 We have dug our graves
D                           Em7
 Seattle is just around the corner
         Bm7
I feel excited and nervous
      G
And a little bit cornered
   D                          
We shave each others' heads to 
 Em7
escape the heat
G                D
 And take to the streets

[Verse 3]
       D                           
And we rise in the late morning on 
Em7                    Bm7
New Year‘s Day to our feast of 
leftovers and
G                            D
Falling back to sleep in the sun in 
your front yard.
        Em7
I think about how long it's been 
since
     Bm7               G
I've felt so full and safe and warm.
      D                   Em7
And I ride downtown on my bike all 
the same
        Bm7                    G
With my headphone in —eyehategod— 
And no brakes.
          D                      
Days like these got me smiling so 
         Em7
hard it hurts my face;
             G                
I'm going to wake up tomorrow, 
 D
whatever it takes
